11 weeks to go

With 11 weeks to go I'm preparing for the biggest test yet next weekend with The Great Glen. 79 miles in 2 days. So 15 miles of trail running in freezing conditions has set me up nicely. After all I just have to more than double it and then repeat it the following day. My calf muscle is a bit tight so I've decided against running tomorrow. I will have minimal running next week but will concentrate on my yoga and core exercises with some spinning on the bike. Tapering is an important part of preparing for major events. I'm looking forward to a change of training next week. I'll report back later.
